There's this weird idea that thinking is the pinnacle of existence. It's a really popular idea. Therefore we should all think as much as possible. And childhood should be spent getting good at thinking. But thinking isn't the pinnacle of existence. In fact it's just a very tiny part of existence. So when we spend all our time thinking, in exclusion of all else, we suffer. A kind of starvation. And it messes us up body and mind.
